When I was young, I used to clean cars, cut hedges, clean windows, in fact almost anything like that provided it involved getting paid.

I don't see anything wrong with the young lass doing that. At least it shows a bit of willingness to get out and earn some cash.

very enterprising kid i was helping my dad and even had a bit of my own work at that age, trouble is things have changed i cant imagine the trouble you would be in if you gave her a ladder to use and she dropped it on something or someone or even worse she fell off. Just goes to show there are still some young ones with a bit of get up and go though

Enterprising or not, it's an eleven year old girl climbing ladders which the customer has to provide  ??? ???

Nobody in their right mind as a customer would allow this surely!

What bothers me is that such an ad is allowed - would you want your 11 year old girl going unaccompanied to strangers homes?

How the heck would an 11yr old girl move a set of ladders around ? You'd have to wait till she was done  on  each window and move them for her.

That would be brilliant - 16 years old and the careers officer at school asks if she is going to go to college then uni. Her reply

Ive got my own buisness with 10 employees which i started when i was 11... i make more in a month than you do in a year.... ;D
